Photo for February 24: Everexpanding suburbia


Early stages of development, Parmer Villages, W. Parmer Lane, Williamson County. For the longest time this huge lot had been cleared with only drainage ditches and very large mounds of dirt. There are now a handful of houses finished with the beginnings of many more already evident.

Photo for February 11: Downtown cranes

Austin's downtown cranes: My wife and I moved to Florida for 5 years, from 1999 to 2004. Austin seems to have shown up on the map during that time. When we came back, there were all of these cranes on the downtown skyline. It was almost like a different town!

Photo for February 5: Austin changes - Austin Java on Barton Springs

Austin Java Cafe & condo construction on Barton Springs Rd. Remember those pecan trees? And Pizza Nizza? A side project of mine is to photograph the constant and the changing in Austin (and the constantly changing!). These aren't necessarily meant to be art pieces so much as a record of what is, was, and will be in these places. Anyone remember Liberty Lunch? Steamboat? Antone's on Guadalupe..?
